Aims & Ethos
The aims of Reigate Grammar School are:
-
To continue the traditions of the school
in providing an excellent all-round education to talented
pupils from a wide variety of social backgrounds.
-
To stimulate intellectual curiosity in
all departments of learning and to enable pupils to fulfil
their academic potential.
-
To provide a disciplined and caring environment
that will encourage boys and girls to develop into morally
and socially responsible young people.
-
To provide all pupils with the essential skills and experiences
that will equip them for the world outside school.
-
To ensure that the development of these
intellectual, physical, creative and social abilities
is conducted in a happy and mutually respectful environment.
The
School is non-denominational and welcomes pupils of all faiths
and of none. Its general approach, however, is Christian and
the strong links with St Mary's Church, including traditional
Christian assemblies in the Church, are valued highly. The
Grammar School tradition that has been so important in the
history of the School remains central to its approach today,
as the academic success of its selected pupils remains one
of the most important aims. In a properly disciplined environment
boys and girls are prepared for entry to University Degree
courses, while an outstandingly committed teaching staff ensures
that the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development
of students is enhanced both in class and in the wide range
of extra-curricular activities that are offered.
